NOBODY is back with his follow-up (but not sequel) to \'Pacific Drift\' and features guest appearances by PREFUSE 73, MIA DOI TODD, XOLOLANXINCO and finally CHRIS GUNST & FARMER DAVE SCHER who help cover THE FLAMING LIPS \"What is the Light?\". It is his debut on LA based PLUG RESEARCH, where Nobody (aka ELVIN ESTELA) feels a bit more at home, both stylistically and literally among more forward thinking music and fellow dublab.com cohorts.
This album finds him in transition and in regression, building on psychedelic themes apparent in his last album, yet revisiting his hip-hop roots as heard on his debut \'Soulmates\' (2000, UBIQUITY RECORDS). Nobody once again teams up with MYSTIC CHORDS OF MEMORY (Chris Gunst of BEACHWOOD SPARKS and JEN COHEN of the AISLER\'S SET) and Farmer Dave Scher (Beachwood Sparks) who delivered the standout track on \'Pacific Drift\', a beat heavy cover of the MONKEES\' \"Porpoise Song\". Nobody has made some fun and weird modern sort of beats that are a bit jagged here and there, but he\'s made them out of pure samples rather than keyboards and Korg Tritons. The samples will smooth out all the ruff edges and keep it dirty at the same time. XLR8R: \"The Best of LA 2004 Issue.\"
